Cavalry Blue Owners

Rare occurrence but enjoying the snow here in Texas!!

 

That makes none of us.

 

hope you have enough supplies to survive that blizzard!

I have some Cavalry fun in the snow pics to add

 

If graphite (as Toyota calls it) is a gray color, then I have it in my 2019 Tundra. Personally, I wouldn't have cared if it were black vs. gray.

I really haven't paid that much attention to what Toyota is calling their interior colors, so this might not be all that helpful...

 

Is anybody running King Shocks on their Cavalry Blue Tundra and willing to post pics? I wan't to see how the King signature blue looks with Cavalry Blue. Thanks in advance.

 

My 2019 SR5 has grey and black mixed seats. The outsides of the seats are black and the center portions are greyish.

Fits right in with the rest of the mismatched color on the dash.

 

Snow looks good on our color. A rare TN snow

 

I got my old Chevy Silverado sold a couple of weeks ago, so that means that I had the money to order a topper for my Tundra today.

The time estimate was 8 - 10 weeks, which I am fine with. Now the wait begins.

Topper details: Century Ultra, color matched (of course!), with removable front window, headliner, and Thule roof rack. Didn't care to have windoors or anything of the sort. I have an easier time getting stuff out through the tailgate/rear window anyway.

Total cost is $2,565. Well worth it, and not as bad as I initially expected before shopping around.

 

my AJT key fob case and Chrome delete kit just arrived. My Tundra is being built on 4/15, the anticipation is killing me!!
headlight revolution 1000 lumen reverse lights, LED cargo light, license plate light, and 3rd brake light are also in the mail

 

Looks good man!

 

Picked up a CB 2019 TRD Sport Double Cab 6.5’ bed with an ARE MX topper a few weeks ago and got to work on modifications. I’m a landscape photographer (@RobPhillipsPhotography) based out of Vail, CO that needed an overland capable, always ready, camper setup that can also be my daily.

Icon 2.5 IR Rear Shocks 57620P
Icon Add A Leaf 51200
SPC Upper Control Arms
Method 309 Grid Titanium 18x9” +18/5.75” w/spare
Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac 285/75/18 (34.8x11.2”) (snow handling is top priority)
Custom rear delete/storage/dog platform by @Skibumbuilder

Future:
Custom camper buildout w/ 60” kitchen drawer by @Skibumbuilder
Better audio (didn’t expect such a big downgrade from my 2014 Grand Cherokee)
Skid plates
Rock sliders
Aggressive front bumper w/ winch
Stealth LED light bar(s)
Rhino Rack Pioneer Platform over cab
Maybe exhaust (currently enjoying a quiet truck compared to my past Jeep hemi)

 

Just wanted to say what’s up to my fellow Cavs, I’m contemplating getting the Harmon Custom backlit TOYOTA letters, would you get them painted Cavalry Blue with white backlit or keep them the graphite grey with the white backlit? I’m worried the Cav Blue may not match exactly. Any opinions?

 

Personally I like the grey, but if you wanted to to CB it is far enough away from all the other blue that you'd have to be WAY off on color for it to be noticed. @ElNopal has been able to match his stuff to the interior really well. Even if his stuff was off a wee bit, you'd never know because it's not right up against the body panels. Same concept for those letters. You've got enough grille to camouflage any minor differences.

 

I like the grey

 

Some pics of the 3rd brake light lens I got from Klearz and the VLEDS replacement bulbs...

 

We’ll update, he’s not taking anymore orders til after June. So I’ll have quiet a while to decide!

 

Cleaned her up today. Love the way the light changes the Cavalry Blue.

 

Like a lot of you I decided to get the pro grill. The main reason being its black instead of grey. Well after a month of it being installed I took it off.
I couldn’t stand looking at that dam sensor garnish. Why can’t Toyota hide it on the pros?
I really like the sr5 grill just the grey doesn’t look good to me on the cavalry.
I found this black snap on overlay. It’s made it Taiwan if that makes a difference. It’s really nice and solid and literally snaps on in 30 seconds. We will see if it lasts.

 

I've been working on getting a topper. Ordered one back on February 23rd with an 8 - 12 week wait window. Got a call back on March 25th that it had arrived!

It's a Century Ultra, which is a good height for the low garage door I have. I did go for a headliner and the removable front window, though.

There was a small snag...the factory forgot the roof rack I ordered. However, the dealer is working on getting the parts and will install it when it arrives. At least I have the topper!

Now the pics!

 

6112/5100 installed. Need to lower the front a clip, got more lift than I wanted. Rides so much better than the stock shocks!

 

How come you went 5100 instead of 5160s? Just curious....

 

I’m taking a different dechroming route haha
Front still in progress. Pickup Friday!

 

I kinda miss the raw finish... but know at least spray paint is a must

 

Don’t really need resi’s. I find 6112/5160 a weird combo. Why wouldn’t they put a resi on the front? Or 5160 with no resi? Or change the numbers so they match like the 5100s?
If I decide to go that route later then I would do front and rear ADS, King, or Icon with resis and clickers.

 

Got a link to where you got it? I have a limited and am like you, like the honeycomb grille.
